Baked Pink Salmon

Description

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. We will bake the fish whole, with head and tail, and make cuts into which we will insert a slice of tomato and a slice of lemon. It is not recommended to eat the fish immediately—be patient and wait until it cools down, although this is very difficult to do, as the delicious aroma spreads throughout the house. The finished dish can now be served.

1. 1

   Step 1

   Clean the fish of scales (if you haven't done so when purchasing), remove the gills and innards.

2. 2

   Step 2
